In 2024, our Housing Crisis Hotline managed a whopping 82,000 calls from 47,000 households. Local families are struggling with rising costs of living and a lack of affordable housing—leaving many without a safe place to call home. Dramatic reductions in governmental programs mean that your support is essential.

By showing up with compassion, resources, and real opportunities, ForKids helps children and families move beyond homelessness and poverty to build productive, independent futures. But we cannot do this alone. We rely on the generosity of our community to help kids like Will (watch his story above) realize their extraordinary potential.  Many more kids like Will need our help.
